LCD Projector with DICOM Mode Designed for Medical Training

A new projector has been specially engineered for projecting Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) simulation images for use in medical education and training.

The projector integrates predefined Clearbase and Bluebase presets for enlarging X-ray images with remarkable clarity. It is also designed to support a flexible array of optional lenses for easy set up in various room sizes and environments in medical school classrooms and hospital conference rooms.


Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America's Presentation Products Division (Irvine, CA, USA) has introduced the MH2850U, its newest SXGA+ (1400 x 1050 pixels) resolution high-brightness liquid crystal display (LCD) projector offering both Clearbase and Bluebase DICOM simulation. These two modes offer accurate detail and great color depth for intensely detailed images required in X-ray graphics as well as computed tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, and other medical imaging applications.

"The MH2850U is the ideal projection solution for medical schools that require affordable projectors for high-resolution images with detail and clarity,” said Wayne Kozuki, product manager, Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America's Presentation Product Division. "And with optional lenses, this portable projector can be easily set up in small briefing rooms or larger classrooms.”

The projector is cost-effective compared to other projectors in the same category. It features inorganic LCD technology that extends the typical service life of the projector display panels, making them more durable and providing a more color-consistent, even-toned image than earlier generation organic LCD panels. Its efficient, side-loading lamp design helps control overall lamp temperature, achieving an estimated 5000-hour lamp life (in low mode), along with quick and convenient lamp replacement.

The MH2850U blasts 3100 ANSI lumens for a bright, clear image even in high-ambient light settings such as large classrooms or meeting rooms with windows Network management is easy with RJ45 connectivity for local area network (LAN) asset management control and its RS232c connection makes it simple to integrate with third-party control systems. It also operates at an ultra-hushed 29dBA noise level in low mode and includes a robust anti-theft security hook to deter theft or any unapproved removal.
